STAR'S END Update 11.16.25

[Star'sEndRadio]

With each collaboration Deborah Martin and Jill Haley grow closer to those voices coaxing them into the wilderness, and ever further away from the prevailing era. RENDERING TIME (47:33) gives this duo each the entirety of the sound space to work their brilliance. A superb continuation of the preceding "The Silence of Grace" (2021) and "Into the Quiet" (2023) RENDERING TIME manifests a quieter, closer to the bone version of New Age Music. Ruminating within the brilliance of some hidden silence, then darkening, without fully dispelling consonance its ten tracks move with an electronically charged, chamber ensemble invention. Utilizing synthesizers, acoustic guitar, woodwinds, soft percussion, voices and complementary detailed effects the key-centered pieces move into perfect resolutions of timbre and tone. Throughout RENDERING TIME Martin & Haley conjure up a safe zone - a domain where notes always stay the same, but meaning is ever changing. What seems like mere moments in Spacemusic comes across as a lifetime in the common realm. Hinting that there are still mysteries yet to be revealed, there is no shortage of life in this album - as it carries listeners to a place beyond words, where we may encounter such truth.
